The JET hybrid scenario has been developed from low plasma current carbon wall discharges to the record-breaking Deuterium-Tritium plasmas obtained in 2021 with the ITER-like Be/W wall. The development started in pure Deuterium with refinement of the plasma current, and toroidal magnetic field choices and succeeded in solving the heat load challeng…

The fusion reaction between deuterium and tritium, D(T,n)4He is the main source of energy in future thermonuclear reactors. Charged fusion products of this reaction, α-particles (4He-ions), are born with an average energy of 3.5 MeV. Transferring energy to the thermal plasma during their slowing down, the…

This article starts with a brief description of two new viewing systems with a light path which crosses the biological shield wall and are compatible with Deuterium-Tritium (D-T) operations in JET. However, it focuses on the optical modelling and engineering design of one of them which is a multiple camera system producing a wide angle view (WAV)…

Following from the paper describing the remote wide angle viewing system compatible with Deuterium-Tritium operations. This is the second article describing a second remote line of sight, this time focusing on the imaging of the divertor region in JET. It explains in detail the optical and engineering designs of constructing an optical relay which …

The evolution of SOL density profiles and fluctuations have been studied at different recycling levels in 3 different tokamaks, ASDEXUpgrade, TCV and JET, all operated in HMode. In all devices we clearly observe an increase of far SOL efolding length at high …

The ability of a body-centered cubic metal to deform plastically is limited by the thermally activated glide motion of screw dislocations, which are line defects with a mobility exhibiting complex dependence on temperature, stress, and dislocation segment length. We derive an analytical expression for the velocity of dislocation glide, based on a s…

The Alfvén Eigenmode Active Diagnostic system (AEAD) has undergone a major upgrade and redesign to provide a state of the art excitation and real-time detection system for JET. The new system consists of individual 4kW amplifiers for each of the six antennas, allowing for increased current, separate excitation and real time control of relative …

Experimental evidence is presented of a discrepancy between the predicted and measured D-D fusion products rates on MAST. Both the neutron and proton production rates, measured independently with a neutron camera and charged fusion product detector array, are approximately 40 % lower than those predicted by TRANSP/NUBEAM codes. This deficit is scen…

During development of a high-performance hybrid scenario for future deuterium–tritium experiments on the Joint European Torus, an increased level of fast ion losses in the MeV energy range was observed during the instability of high-frequency n = 1 fishbones. The fishbones are excited during deuterium neutral beam injection combined with…
